A kind bit of advice for our European friends. Please use the word "Fired" carefully. It does not translate to "lost a job".

Fired (also known as "sacked") - Usually used in reference to someone losing their job due to poor performance on the job, due to an incident as a result of negligence (willful or not), or due to something in contravention to HR policies or the law (harassment or assault).

Redundancy (made redundant) or Layoff (laid off) - The company has decided that due to lack of demand, financial issues, economic reasons or efficiency requirements, they have to get rid of your position (not necessarily get rid of you).

Furlough - A temporary layoff from work. People who get furloughed usually get to return to their job after a furlough.
